Attaques, parades et contre-attaques : un commentaire linéaire de la postface auctoriale de la seconde édition allemande du ‘Capital’ (1873)

Abstract

The second German edition of Capital appeared in nine issues, from July 1872 to March 1873. Marx added an afterword in which he hoped to answer his western European critics, whom he felt did not grasp his work. To understand the afterword to the second German edition of Capital, one must take into account both what Marx wrote in his book and what Marx’s British, French, German and Russian critics said about his work between 1867 and 1872.
